I Wish It Would Rain

Bobby Womack

Hmm, let it rain
Let it rain
Let it rain (let it rain) somebody, somebody make it rain
(Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain) oh

Sunshine, blue skies, go away, please go away
The girl has found another and she's gone away
With her went my future, oh, my life is filled with gloom
And day after day, I stay locked up in my room
I know to you, oh it's gotta sound strange
But somebody make it rain, oh yeah (make it rain, make it rain, rain)

Oh, yeah
(Oh it's gonna be some rain)
(Oh it's gonna be some rain)

So bad I wanna go outside
And everyone knows that a man ain't supposed to cry
But let me tell you about it
Oh crying, crying, crying is gonna ease the pain

People this hurt that I feel inside
Words could never explain (let it rain, let it rain)
But somebody make it rain (make it rain, make it rain, make it rain)
Make it rain, oh make it rain

Oh, it's gonna be some rain
Oh, it's gonna be some rain
Oh, it's gonna be some rain
Oh, it's gonna be some rain

With her went my future, oh my life is filled with gloom
And day, day after day I stay locked up in my room
I know to you, it's gotta sound strange
But somebody make it rain, yeah (make it rain, make it rain, rain)

Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain, oh
Let it rain (let it rain, let it rain, rain)

Oh it's gonna be some rain
Oh let it come down
Oh it's gonna be some rain
Oh let it come down (somebody)

Oh it's gonna be some rain (make it rain)
Oh let it come down (I know you hear me talking to you)
Oh it's gonna be some rain (make it rain)
Oh let it come down (I'm gonna cry)

Oh it's gonna be some rain (somebody)
Oh let it come down (somebody)
Oh it's gonna be some rain (somebody make it rain)
Oh let it come down (I cry)

Oh it's gonna be some rain (you know, man)
Oh let it come down (gonna put you down)
Oh it's gonna be some rain (foolin' around)
Oh let it come down (make it rain)

Oh it's gonna be some rain (make it rain)
Oh let it come down
Oh it's gonna be some rain (oh make it rain)
Oh let it come down (make it rain)

Oh it's gonna be some rain (somebody)
Oh let it come down (know you hear me talking to you)
Oh it's gonna be some rain (oh make it rain)

Oh let it come down
Oh it's gonna be some rain
Oh let it come down
